Angers / Saint-Etienne postponed, before Bordeaux-Marseille?
If the French Football Federation has done everything to prevent a single Coupe de France match from being postponed, the Professional Football League seems to be showing sporting ethics, understanding at the moment T, humanity. , and intelligence.
Indeed, this Friday, the Competitions Commission of the LFP has decided to postpone the meeting of the 20th day of Ligue 1 between the SCO d’Angers and AS Saint-Étienne, initially scheduled for Sunday, January 9. The number of positive cases for Covid-19 in the workforce of the SCO, the workforce most affected just before the Girondins de Bordeaux, generated this report.
“To date, we have identified 19 positive cases in the list of 30 players submitted to the LFP for Ligue 1 Uber Eats matches. Of which more than 10 will not be authorized to contest a meeting before January 10, 2022. In addition, 5 members of the staff are also positive. This situation leads us to ask the LFP Commission formed for this purpose, for the report of the match scheduled for January 9, 2022 at 3:00 pm against ASSE ”(SCO Angers).
A situation which obviously resembles that of the club in the scapular. If at the moment T the Coupe de France meeting against Stade Brestois seems the priority, there is no doubt that the FCGB is asking for a report of this match against Olympique de Marseille. Gerard Lopez It was very strongly implied last night on RMC:
“The difference is that the League does not plan to lose a game automatically… It is total nonsense to lose a game automatically. What is happening in Bordeaux today, I saw that it started in Monaco too… In my opinion, it’s just a matter of time for other teams to go through the same choice. And we will say what, ‘the first to be affected, too bad for them?’. It’s just impossible. Today, I cannot say if the league match (against Marseille) will be affected by all this, I do not have all the data ”
